I Been Painting....

[HippoDrone]

My bike is getting a proper paint job done at the moment so I have started tidying up some of the remaining jobs to get the bike finished.

Started by grinding the footpeg lugs off the brackets so they are a bit nicer to look at. I then gave them some paint as well as the front mudguard bracket.

Am really looking forward to getting the painted tank and panels back, gonna be at least another 2wks though so need to keep occupied while I can't ride it!

Little known fact that freshly painted parts add at least 5 hp to any bike they are installed on.

Funny enough, I have been looking at getting a new bike. This past Sat. at the motorcycle rodeo, I told the General Manager that the value of my bike gone up $2k USD for being in videos.

Glad you showed I was looking at it the right way!

Lol, you could sign it and tell him it was owned by an internet celebrity

I might! I had the parts guy that dressed it up when I bought the bike to sign the inside of the tour pak because he also designed full on custom bikes for that dealership.

That would be hilarious until some sees how few subs I got. Oh well, I ain't in this for the money.
